In therapy, I come from a compassionate, empathetic, supportive approach. I work collaboratively with individuals on the goals they want to work on. Together we will explore what may be challenging and devise a plan on how to overcome those challenges and celebrate success.

People who tend to find success working with me have an idea of goals they'd like to meet and want a safe space to share ideas, feelings, and thoughts.
